Blizzard has absolutely no openly gay main characters besides Soldier 76 and Tracer and this is found out in comic books. I’d like Anduin to be gay because
A) Warcraft has no gay main characters
B) My gay peers would feel more included -and finally-
C) It would be interesting narratively
edit: Christie Golden on Twitter is not canon, and even if it was WoW is the most retconned video game universe I’ve ever encountered.
bonus: all the fragile macho men go reeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee
C) It would be interesting narratively
There’s absolutely nothing narratively interesting about WoW’s story or characters anymore.
So let’s make Anduin gay with Wrathion, problem partially solved. Romance plot arch.
More inclusion would be great, as long as representation is handled respectfully
That you know of.
I feel plenty included. They literally had a large portion of the last book about Shaw and Flynn falling in love.
…how? Like, legitimately, how does that help narratively speaking?
No. Anduin is into, “girls,” according to Golden.
However.
I honestly think Blizzard should make at least three fun, well thought out and designed characters who are gay, bi, lesbian, or unlike how Transgender Pelagos is written, someone I / we want to be around in game.
Role models are a thing.
However, shoehorning existing characters into forced narrative niches is bad.
The people saying “He’s a king, the line must be maintained” need to pay more attention in history. Lol.
Oh god, the can of worms has been opened.
the ree storm has begun.
…Bruh Shaw and Flynn are RIGHT THERE
Why not? They’ve retconned everything else
These are not titular characters for the average WoW player.
No he’s not. He actually has a fancy for female draeneis and has been to goldshire. He also likes Taelia a lot.
Shaw was a main character in BFA for the Alliance.
And Flynn was the main character in an entire zone for the Alliance.
You are not a spokesperson for all of us queer people but I do appreciate the insight.
Shaw has been here since Vanilla and Flynn was a big character in BfA.
Shaw is also in a good chunk of the legion rogue story. The heck you been?
I never said I was. And the same goes for you as well.
The man is the last of his name. If he dies without an heir the wrynn dynasty will be over. Thats what happens
Okay but it’s a misnomer to claim they’re characters that the average WoW fan is familiar with. Go ahead and ask a casual with more distance from the community.
Woopdeefreaking doo
I’m slightly alarmed she doesn’t seem to know bisexual people exist.
